^ Nice desktop Goobi !

[SunnyChahal]

@Goobi,where can I get Dock themes?
@laughingman,OS X already has a good GUI,why spoil it?Just need some dock themes.

[goobimama]

www.dockulicious.com. If their application doesn't work, you can use Candybar, or better still directly replace the files in question (instructions are usually there in each dock theme you download). You can also do customisations by means of some awesome icons (check michaelsmac.com, deviantart and other icon resources for some stunning stuff)

@BBThumbhealer: Wally is still not complete yet. Needs a few things done...

[Laughingman]

people with mac suffer from the thought "OS X is cool and fine, leave it like that"
People without mac suffers from the thought "In What ways they will change, twist and play if they had it"

That's the irony
Those who have it don't want to touch it
Those who don't, wants to twist it and Break it.

[narangz]

How can I view these pics at skitch at 100%?

[SunnyChahal]

Right click<Open the picture in a new window<Zoom

[narangz]

Zoom? How

Seems like I am high on something

Who says you can't theme OS X? While there isn't anything like Talisman (seriously, who uses that?) one can change the look of the system, change icons, docks, widgets and all that rubbish. However, what I have noticed, is that most of these theming applications generally try to copy the OS X user interface. Which is, like sunny said, the best UI there is.

@rajbir: there is definitely a view at 100% option in that skitch window. Unless you are viewing it on an iPhone.

Well I guess something's wrong with me tonight. Here's the screenshot & tell me where is the zoom button:




P.S.- I am on Firefox 3.

[SunnyChahal]

Bhai your mouse pointer convers to a zoom button (+) when you hover it over the pic.
First right click on the image and select open the image in new window.When it opens up,you will know what I am talking about.

@Goobi,yup,OS X doesn't need any theming at all!!
BTW who is Rajbir?

[narangz]

There's no magnifying glass or anything with + when i move my mouse pointer over the pic.

[SunnyChahal]

Try Safari Did you open the image in a new window?

[narangz]

That thing is opening only in IE. Seems FF3 & Opera are not compatible. Don't have Safari right now on XP.

Yes, I am on XP at the moment & recovring some data. BTW- Did I say I really want to get back to Vista?

[praka123]

click on image for full resolution.

Here is my Debian Sid gloriously completing god know how many months...almost 1 year I suppose. this distro is a proof of Linux superiority.
My harddisk failed(failing) around 2 months back.I immediately copied the distro to the new hdd and did some tweaks and voila!my good old Debian Sid is running as usual. then ,I swap between Via chipset board and gigabyte 915gv boards almost constantly.again Linux and Debian works easily.

Now with latest upgrade to 945GC based board,ram and new processor ,GNU/Linux worked as usual .

Now I wonder whether we can expect this with those so called Vi$ta's and OS X's

Same here no Zoom option.

[goobimama]

Well it could be that it isn't compatible with ff3. Will keep that in mind the next time I post something here.

Edit: Okay I can't see the zoom button on Safari as well. Must be after the skitch update something is going on in there that needs to be fixed. Though for now one has to drag the image from the skitch window onto a new tab . Next time we only post direct links.

@prakash: Why? And what makes you think OS X can't do that? That too without the said tweaks. Not sure about what Vista is capable of though.

Praka, PLEASE can we keep this thread to what the title says? Please post desktop screenshot only.. We dont want to hear why linux is better than windows or vice-verca.
